Forgotten Fanart

All right, I'm just going to make this post a picture dump of some of my recent and not so recent drawings and whatnot. The oldest is from 2015 or maybe earlier and the most recent ones are from this year obviously. I didn't put them in any age order so they are very randomly listed below.


A bunny, a sketch for a present I was making for a friend. I used a figurine as a reference.


My Little Pony G4 styled pony persona? IDK.


Fan made Pokemon. In the Christmas calender event at Living in the Moving Forest  blog -"Invent your own Pokemon" prompt.



The Hama bead portrait of our horse I made for my mother as a birthday gift. Didn't turn out too great. I would have liked to use a brighter photo as the base, but I didn't have a better headshot of him. It didn't help that I ran out of 4 colors of beads while making it. I prefer the picture in the silver frame because of the bright colors. I made that one as well, like 7-8 years ago.




Dragonball Z. Unfinished drawings of Freeza and an OC Majin character.



My entry for Daria Cohen's Vampair Design Contest on Instagram. The characters are named Missi and Duke. I colored this in a hurry so there are mistakes in here that are bothering me now. Like that cane I didn't retouch at all, so you can see my only brown felt pen was drying and dying. Also, that uncolored dress part on Missi's shoulder is driving me nuts. Check her channel out!


Drew this Jason Voorhees as a Christmas (duh!) card for a friend.





From the Ring movies. I found that one WIP picture I had almost forgotten about in the depths of my tablet. For the colored picture I wanted to mimic that old school TV static you don't see anymore. I also made that plain, basic and dull background just in case I find the other one be too distracting.



At one point, when I got interested in Monster High dolls, I purchased the Monster High PS3 game "New Ghoul in School" when it was on sale. In the game you are allowed to create your own character from different monster classes. It is a kid's game so it's not really that in-depth or hard in any way. I was fun for a short while. Anyway, I made my character a ghost and named her Saya. And after browsing some other fan created MH character sheets, I made her a "skull logo" design and gave her a pet for a good measure, because that apparently it's a must thing for a Monster High character to have.


:::Moomin Art Contest:::












So here above are my entries to the Moomin art contest arranged by Yle.fi in 2019. No, I didn't win, but I'm happy I participated. I don't think I've done any Moomin drawings since my childhood, so it was a lot of fun. I drew five pictures and then colored them on the computer. Usually, when I'm coloring a picture it takes about 1-2 days for me to get it finished. This time, the deadline for entering was drawing near and I hadn't even started coloring any of the pictures. So I did the impossible, and colored all five pictures in one evening. Which seems really crazy now when I think about it. I admit I did cut every possible corner I could to be able to get them finished. I didn't clean the line arts thoroughly and I did color them as fast as possible. The only one I kind of like as it is, is the Snufkin & Little My one. Honestly, I should just re-color all of them, now when I don't have a deadline to keep.





The best part of this is that they highlighted one of my drawings on their website in their post about the contest results! Yay!

:::::


I can't even remember drawing this Snufkin. Which isn't that surprising, I think I must have traced it from a children's book or something in order to be able to color it the way I like.




I'm pretty sure I used a reference picture of a regular Koga dog  when I drew this Kurojaki. I'm not comfortable drawing dogs at all or dogs in Yoshihiro Takahashi's style for that matter, because I'm terrible at it. For practise reasons, I used a ballpoint pen for the  line art instead of the marker pen I usually use. I also tried to follow a tutorial while I was coloring this, but I ended up improvising it anyway. 







Connor, from the game  Detroit: Become Human. This is my most recent drawing, hence a lot of WIP pictures. I liked my pencil drawing that much I didn't want to ink over it, so I improvised a light table to make a second drawing. The actual quote from the game goes "You can't kill me, I'm not alive." But since my drawing is a reference to this meme I had to change it up.



That's all for now!

Flea market findings 7

Bought during a longer time period and not in one go and from separate places.

Poor G1 My Little Pony named Sand Digger cost me only 0,50€. I don't think this one is salvageable, I've heard those pen marks are very hard to remove and this one has them all over.

Spirited Away No-Face/Kaonashi phone charm with one of the "Heads".  I think I'm remembering I paid 2€ for this. Aside from the movies, this is the first Studio Ghibli merchandise that I own.

These Mega Pokémon figures are still sold in stores, so someone got tired of it really quickly. I was lucky to find this Mega Absol for only 2€, while if I bought it new from a store it would cost about 12€.

Score! It is so rare to find any Dragon Ball Z figures for sale, so that's why I have to feel extra happy whenever I find such rarity. Vegeta, Trunks, Goku and Gohan all came in the same plastic bag with a 10€ price tag slapped on it. It bothers me a little how Gohan isn't quite the right scale compared to the rest of them. He should only reach up to Goku's shoulders and not stand as tall as him.

These ceramic dogs cost 0,80€ each and if I ever find the time again, I'll use them for my Ginga custom project.

This 1997 Kenner AT-AT pilot has been through tough times and cost me only 0,50€.

The small plastic bag Eevee, Buneary, Piplup and a Nendoroid I do not recognize all came in, cost only 0,50€! Fifty cents! This has to be the cheapest Nendoroid ever! Maybe it's one of them good bootlegs, I dunno. Probably missing a lot of additional parts as well. Who are you, pink nurse?

The odd bunch containing Grievous, super deformed Kenobi and a Lil' Chewbacca. I bought them separately and can't remember what I paid for each one.

Operetta, Gigi and Clawdeen cost together 3€, that's one euro for each doll! That's crazy cheap considering they have most of their clothes and no missing limbs. Although Gigi's hair looks and feels very dirty... I'm not complaining!

These mini horses are super tiny and cute! And I can't remember what they cost me. I'm thinking of repainting the two on the right.

 Yet another Chap Mei Dilophosaurus for the collection <3

 Can't say the paint job is that accurate on the foxes, but the pup and parent are cute nonetheless.

Bootleg Pokémons. Aside from Absol and Darkrai, I don't think the sculpting is that bad, mostly is just the paint job. Fennekin, Braixen and Sandshrew look pretty good! Poor Eevee has a slightly deformed head, otherwise it looks pretty okay too. Something went terribly wrong with Darkrai, I can't stop laughing! XD
